How many pistons does a Wankel engine have?

Wankel Engines don't have pistons. They have rotors instead. The rotor is vaguely triangular, and turns in a cleverly shaped, oval chamber. The combustion volume is formed by the space enclosed between two of the tips of the rotor and the walls of the chamber. But just like piston Engines can have different numbers of pistons, wankel Engines can have different numbers of rotors.


What has a helicopter have?

It has a rotor blade instead of wings.


What is the use of clutch and brake oil?

both are used for hydraulic pistons to create pressure against brake rotor/drum or clutch disc


What is the difference between hydraulic disc brakes and mechanical disc brakes?

Hydraulic discs, there are hydraulic pistons pushing the brake pads against the rotor. Mechanical discs, there's a lever that turns a screw which pushes the pads against the rotor.


How does a tilt rotor land?

As a helicopter. The blades on the V-22 Osprey are much too long for it to land as a conventional airplane would.


A rotary engine has how many pistons?

0. A Rotary Engine does not have any pistons.The rotary engine is an early type of combustion engine. There is no particular quantity of pistons to a rotary engine, but usually an odd number. The type of engine known as the Wankel engine and sometimes known as a rotary engine has no pistons, but has one rotor per combustion chamber.


Working mechanism of rotary valves?

Rotary engines do not have valves. They have rotors that are triangular shaped that spin in a circle around the eccentric shaft alongside the housing wall. The fuel squirts into the chamber made by the triangular shape and the housing wall, this is where the exhaust port and the spark plugs are located, as the rotor spins it builds pressure in the chamber and ignites the fuel spinning the rotor.


How do you You Change The Brake Pads and rotors On a 2003 Grand Am GT?

Remove wheels Remove 2 caliper mounting bolts Slide caliper off rotor Rotor will slide off hub Use a "C" clamp to fully retract pistons into caliper body Replace pads inner and outer Install rotor Slide caliper onto rotor and secure PUMP BRAKE PEDAL TO SET PADS AGAINST ROTOR PRIOR TO MOVING VEHICLE


What is causing the rear pads not to grip rotors on 2010 Chrysler town and country van. i just replaced the rotor and pads and it apears the rear brakes are not working properly?

You most likely have screwed the caliper pistons in too far. You have to set them as close to the rotor as possible.


How do you change the rear brake pads on a 2003 f350?

I just did mine. Use a screw driver to press the brake pads away from the rotor and compress the caliper pistons back some so you can remove the caliper off of hte rotor. Losen and remove the bolts to the brake caliper. DO NOT DISCONNECT the brake line from the caliper! Get you a c-clamp and a piece of 1/4 board about 4 inches long. Once you have removed the caliper from the mount and removed the brake pads support the caliper with one hand. Place the wood over the caliper pistons and using the c-clamp place it over the wood and center of both pistons and other side of caliper to compress the pistons back into the caliper. Make sure you DO NOT PINCH the rubber boots on the pistons. Once you have compressed the pistons back into the calipers install your new pads and calipers back on the mounting surface and tighten the bolts back to torque specs.


How many different types of disc brake calipers are there?

There are two main types of calipers: floating (or sliding) calipers and fixed calipers. Floating calipers move in and out relative to the rotor and have one or two pistonsFixed calipers, as the name implies, don't move, but rather have pistons arranged on opposing sides of the rotor.


How do car brakes work?

In modern disc brakes, a piston (or two pistons) squeeze two composite pads onto a rotor attached to the wheel. In the older drum system a piston forced two 'Shoes' apart internally in the drum attached to the wheel. Both systems use hydraulic power to activate the pistons.
